Happy Birthday To John Smoltz and George Brett

Two of my favorite baseball players share a birthday today: Future Hall of Famer John Smoltz and Hall of Famer George Brett. Brett is one of the greatest third basemen of all-time and played his whole 20 year career in Kansas City. A pistol on and off the field Brett is known not just for his 3000 plus hits and over .300 batting average but the most famous ejection in MLB history: The Pine Tar Game.



If you ever see Brett in Las Vegas please don't give him the crab legs. This is his epic explosive shit story from Spring Training...

Also a big 45th Happy Birthday to the greatest Atlanta Braves pitcher of all-time John Smoltz. Yes I said it. Smoltz is the best "Atlanta" pitcher for his whole career. Better than Niekro, Mad Dog, and Glavine in my opinion. He is a sure-fire first-ballot Hall of Famer and was the most clutch Braves player in postseason history. Whether starting or closing games the first guy I would want on the mound wearing the tomahawk is Smoltzie. He also has a pretty sweet house up in Milton...
